Signature Capture

Signature Capture

Signature Capture is a feature of ESCAPE which provides new capabilities for retailers to attach a customer’s signature electronically to the transaction, and provide a copy of that signature to credit provider upon request. As a result, paper documents no longer need to be moved from the store which in return increases productivity for retailers.

Each signature is kept with the sales transaction details in the ESCAPE index file for each terminal. When the journal and index files are polled, the electronic signatures are transported along.
